The WOSU Public Media headquarters, a five-floor building is located just east of Ohio State’s campus at the corner of 14th Avenue and Pearl Street (map). It includes radio and television studios and community spaces for events.

The new building features the Ross Community Studio, an open 2,200-square-foot engagement space; an expanded newsroom; broadcast studios; a performance studio; and a state-of-the art media learning lab. Experiential activities will grow tremendously as the new headquarters will host dozens of community events each year.
